Tens of thousands of children have been displaced in the last weeks, in the confusion of flight children have been separated from their parents. Already malnourished children are now even more vulnerable. In the crowded makeshift camps measles and cholera are growing dangers. Thousands of children are unable to start the school year. Armed groups are using at least a 1000 children and more are being recruited. UNICEF, through a network of partners, is assisting 60,000 people around Muganga and Minova in the Kivus. UNICEF is identifying separated children and reunifying them with their families. Rape survivors are being given medical and psychosocial support. Clean water distribution and latrines have been set up. Displaced families have received temporary shelter materials, bedding and cooking sets. All children under the age of 14 are being vaccinated against measles and pregnant women against neo natal tetanus. 2000 children have been screened for malnutrition. Emergency education programmes have started. UNICEF’s partners are AVSI, Caritas, the International Rescue Committee, Heal Africa, the Norwegian Refugee Council, Save the Children UK, Solidarités, World Vision International and the provincial health service of the Democratic Republic of Congo. UNICEF has assisted 350,000 displaced persons since the start of fighting in Sake last November. UNICEF’s actions are part of a coordinated response with other UN organizations; Office Coordination for Humanitarian Affairs, United Nations High Commission for Refugees, World Food Programme, World Health Organisation & The Mission of the United Nations in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Despite all this the majority of displaced persons remain inaccessible due to the fighting. UNICEF calls upon all parties to the conflict to; protect the rights of children, end the recruitment of children and ensure humanitarian access to all displaced persons.2026-01-02T19:46:24+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2026/01/07/book-review-alexander-casella-breaking-the-rules-working-for-the-un-can-be-fun-and-it-can-also-do-some-good-provided-one-is-ready-to-lie-fib-obfuscate-and-break-all-the-rules/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/61wkncipafl._sl1360_.jpg61wkNCIPafL._SL1360_2026-01-02T19:43:34+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2026/01/07/book-review-metta-spencer-the-russian-quest-for-peace-and-democracy/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/61h9gtqizvl._sl1360_.jpg61H9gtQiZVL._SL1360_2026-01-02T19:42:58+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2026/01/07/book-review-jean-hardy-a-psychology-with-a-soul/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/a-psychology-with-a-soul.jpgA-Psychology-with-a-Soul2026-01-02T19:42:08+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2026/01/07/book-review-deng-ming-dao-the-wandering-taoist/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/422432.jpg4224322026-01-02T19:18:42+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2026/01/06/book-review-baolin-wu-and-jessica-riley-eye-of-heaven/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/wueye-fr-1017x1536-1.jpgWuEye-Fr-1017x15362026-01-02T15:56:32+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2026/01/06/book-review-david-cortright-peace-a-history-of-movements-and-ideas/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/61ge8o0dhrl._sl1500_.jpg61Ge8o0DHrL._SL1500_2026-01-02T15:46:38+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2026/01/05/light-for-the-new-year/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/capture-decran-2026-01-02-101004.pngCapture

During the visit to Baibai village in Nesitu Payam on November 30, 2015, Ambassador Masahiko, witnessed demonstrations of various de-mining processes by UNMAS staff, including being part of a mine-risk education awareness program. During a two-decade long conflict in Sudan which pitted north and southern Sudan against each other, Nesitu was a military barracks belonging to the Sudan Army Forces and various landmines and explosive remnants are believed to have been left behind. Nesitu had also been abandoned, but few people have returned to the area. Japan has contributed 2.5 million US dollars to help fund the demining efforts in South Sudan.2025-04-06T17:21:31+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2025/03/26/syria-creating-a-framework-for-cooperative-action/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/d8aed8b1d98ad8b7d8a9_d8b3d988d8b1d98ad8a7_d8a7d984d8acd8afd98ad8afd8a9.jpgخريطة_سوريا_الجديدةhttps://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/kofi_annan_at_menszt.jpgKofi_Annan_at_MENSZT2025-03-25T19:03:26+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2025/03/25/ngos-in-an-evolving-world-society/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/5758970864_0035118184_o.jpgPeacekeeping - UNMIS1st November 2006, Bulbul Dalal Angara region of Nyala, Southern Darfur, 1980 km west of Khartoum.

bruised eyes still swollen shut, Buthaina Muhammad Mansour, believed to be four or five, doesn't yet know that her parents, five siblings and uncle were killed when an air strike flattened their home in Yemen's capital. Despite a concussion and skull fractures, doctors think Buthaina will pull through - her family's sole survivor of the Aug 25 attack, on an apartment building, that residents blame on a Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen since 2015. The alliance said in a statement it would investigate the air strike, which killed at least 12 civilians. REUTERS/Khaled Abdullah SEARCH "STRIKE MANSOUR" FOR THIS STORY.

These operations targeted public safety threats, such as convicted criminal aliens and gang members, as well as individuals who have violated our nation’s immigration laws, including those who illegally re-entered the country after being removed and immigration fugitives ordered removed by federal immigration judges. ICE officers in the Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, San Antonio and New York City areas of responsibility arrested more than 680 individuals who pose a threat to public safety, border security or the integrity of our nation’s immigration system.

When the IS started seizing predominantly Christian-inhabited areas of Iraq by force, its militiamen immediately painted this on houses they knew or thought were owned by Christians, N being for “Nasrani” which is itself the Arabic for “Christian”. A long echo of the Nazis’ practices in pre-World War II Germany, when Hitler’s own militiamen would paint a Star of David on the front door of each Jewish-owned business. That was just before the “Final Solution” which claimed over 6 million lives.2015-08-18T19:43:18+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2015/08/02/osce-strains-and-renewal-in-the-security-community/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/osce-3.jpg(C) Sadankomiteahttps://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/osce02_400.jpghttps://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/osce01_400.jpg2015-08-02T09:29:01+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2015/07/30/international-day-of-friendship/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/intl-friendship-day-1.jpg2015-07-30T19:23:15+00:00monthlyhttps://awcungeneva.com/2015/07/21/the-trial-of-hissene-habre-an-advance-for-world-law/https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/president-ronald-reagan-w-007.jpgIn 1987 Ronald Reagan, the then President of the United States, welcomed Hissène Habré to the White House during his official visit to America.

Since the newly-elected Socialist Party parliamentary majority had begun examining a bill on same-sex marriage in late 2012, French President François Hollande and his government had faced demonstrations, sometimes violent, by opponents to gay rights who wanted them to drop the bill. The attack on Wilfred and Olivier resulted in national outrage and the opponents to the government-proposed bill were widely blamed for it. Eventually, on May 17, 2013 the French Parliament went ahead and did pass the law extending the right to marriage to same-sex couples.https://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/5618726-mon-agression-a-a-voir-avec-la-facon-dont-le-debat-se-deroule.jpghttps://awcungeneva.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/tchad_homosexualitc3a9.jpgIn a most welcome move to amend its penal code, the African nation of Chad announced but it was abolishing the death penalty.

It forced the reporter's family into hiding and changed history. (...) Written by Anthony Mascarenhas, a Pakistani reporter, and printed in the UK's Sunday Times, it exposed for the first time the scale of the Pakistan army's brutal campaign to suppress its breakaway eastern province in 1971. (...) There is little doubt that Mascarenhas' reportage played its part in ending the war. It helped turn world opinion against Pakistan and encouraged India to play a decisive role."

The attack on Iraq’s own Kurdish population killed 5,000 civilians and injured at least 10,000 more. Generally dubbed “Bloody Friday”, the Halabja attack also remains in the memory of the Kurdish people of Iraq and beyond as the "Kurdish Hiroshima”.
